Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
We’ll start by making tiramisu using my mum’s recipe, so she’ll have time to tidy up the fridge whilst I show you how, with just two simple ingredients – flour and water – you can make traditional fresh pasta. Then, using seasonal, local and high-quality produce, we’ll make sauces to serve with the pasta.
There’ll be plenty of tastings of local specialities and, above all, a warm welcome as only we Italians know how to give; you won’t feel like a student, but part of the family.

- Big thank you to Filomena and her daughter for a fantastic evening. The cookery class was amazing and we got to learn new skills and tasted foods we had not tried before. We made two types of pasta, tiramisu and bruschetta. Then had the pleasure of eating these with Filomena and her daughter (who was a very good translator- thank you so much!) I would recommend this experience to anyone regardless of any culinary knowledge as Filomena was very generous with her time and talent to help us create wonderful vegetarian food. I’m looking forward to creating these dishes when I get home. This evening has been a highlight of our holiday. Thank you x
- Filomena was an amazing host. 10/10 experience. I ended up being delayed causing me to be late and she was very understanding, even helped with suggesting solutions for transportation. I got to cook and enjoy this experience with her and her daughter. They had welcome snacks, appetizers, wine, and desserts for me. We made several different pasta shapes and 2 different sauces. All the food tasted amazing, and seeing the different teqniques and learning about the ingriedents shows how thre is so much more to cooking Throughout the experience, I was learning so much but also deeply enjoying the experience as a whole as we were all getting to know each other, sharing stories, and enjoying each others presence. I went solo to this experience, and I so welcome and comfortable. While enjoying our courses I felt just like family as we laughed, talked and enjoyed each others company. At the end they offered to show me around their town, and told me about different historic things. I was provided with pictures of us cooking, and being show around. Filomena and her daughter are both wonderful people and amazing cooks. Mettinf them and this experience made my whole entire trip and was truly the highlight. I cannot recommend this experience more, if you are in the Matera area this is a MUST DO! This was the most unforgettable experience that I will cherish forever. I’m so excited to pass on stories about my experience with friends and families, as well as the recipes I was taught!
- Filomena and her family are absolutely wonderful ,so kind and welcoming. I had difficoluty finding other cooking-classes as Im traveling on my own and they Need two people to book. Filomena allowed me to book and attend on my own. Filomena welcomed me, made time to teach and share with me.
- This was an amazing experience! Not only was the food the best I've ever had but the hospitality was beyond amazing! It's such a great environment and all the food was so fresh and delicious. Would recommend anyone to come and try!
- We had the best time and learned a lot too, a very top highlight of our trip to Italy. Filomena and her family were so welcoming and lovely. We loved learning how to make pasta from Filomena’s family traditions, but even more we loved the connection and lovely meal together. I’m so glad we booked this for our last evening in the area.

Cesarina from 2025Location: Matera (MT) Languages: Italian, English, SpanishIn my kitchen, I use only top-quality ingredients, carefully chosen from local producers, and prepared with attention, using the "star" ingredient—our extra virgin olive oil, produced with passion and dedication. I don’t have a single dish that represents me because every day of the year brings a different specialty, created based on the seasonal availability of ingredients and what’s fresh at the moment. The one ingredient that never misses is love—the love I put into preparing and serving each dish, to offer an authentic and unforgettable experience.
